  • Kudos to tracicle. Hurrah!
  • You realise that if you beat metafilter, they'll just blame it on the hanging chads. (Now is it the radio button above or below that I tick?)
  • w00+!!11! r0xx0r111111
  • Interesting thoughts as I considered this vote... I'm only a "member" at three of the community weblogs.. MeFi, MoFi, and Fark (hanging head in shame here...sorry :-( so, if I narrowed the vote down to those three under the "community" weblog, MoFi was the ONLY logical choice.. This site is the only one of the three with any sense of "community", where, even when there are disagreements there is a sense that people care about each other.... good work, folks (and tracicle).... YOU won my vote...take a bow!
  • Voted. Let's not have another Ohi-rida on this one.
  • Voted. I thought the "Lifetime Achievement" (for blogging since 2001) award was a bit previous.
  • Voted. If we win, what do we get?
  • Didn't we just do this? I'm still getting spam from the last time. Oh well. I'll just vote the usual again. Well done, Tracicle!
  • If we win, what do we get? Spam and trolls
  • Voted. If we win, what do we get? A nice button
  • "Spam and rolls"?????? I LOVE spam on rolls....can I have two???? oh... "trolls"....crap
  • Trolls are good with spam too, but only when its dark.
  • Fes, the prize is $20.05 from here. I'm not quite sure how I'll spend my fraction of a penny.
  • We're going to invest it!
  • Congrats Tracicle! Congrats Monkeys!
  • I don't know, Mickey, I think as user #3 you should get a whole penny.
  • oh we are SO HOT. now we just have to make sure that every single monkey votes.
  • Moron influx in 5...4...3...2...1...
  • Hm... if a million monkeys voted in a million Bloggies awards...
  • Hello!
  • I think it's great that moFi is nominated alongside some of the older giants. It's a testament to the amount of work Tracicle and all the other simians involved. To be held in such high regard is winning already.
  • These are the real Bloggies? (if there is such a thing). I was fooled last time.
  • No, no no jacbo. That's defeatist hippy nonsense on a par with 'it's not the winning, it's the taking part. Unless and until the vile heretics of Mefi, Fark and their snivelling ilk are swept wholesale from the web we will never see the glorious thousand year reign of Monkeybashi the cosmos so clearly cries out for.
  • These are the real proper bloggies and yes, vote and get your friends to vote. Also your enemies.
  • Voted. And, yes! For our place to be in the top 4 is so cool.
  • Voting is a meaningless exercise. I voted.
  • bernockle wins! man i can't wait to win that award and get the hell out of this two bit community . . . stupid monkeys think they're so great . . . i'll show 'em . . i'll show 'em all! oop! heh! I said "show them to the mall!" . . heh . . it's a really . . . really good mall . . .
  • bernockle does indeed win. That was fucking brilliant.
  • Eep! 509 error, bandwith exceeded. That's OK, I was planning to vote for Fark anyway. *ducks*
  • Note to Monkey filter community: I voted. In favor of monkeyfilter. That is all.
  • MoFi'ed???
  • Who gives a shit about some cheap-arsed prize? You'd better fucking believe we're the best community weblog.
  • (Bandwidth exceeded on the bloggies. Better give the prize back so they can afford som more.)
  • Yup, we moofed it good. Will vote for us when it's back up again. ****Hip Hip Horray 4 US**** MonkeyFilter: I LOVE Spam on rolls....Can I have two???? MonkeyFilter: Oh, we are SO hot! MonkeyFilter: I was fooled last time. MonkeyFilter: Moron influx in 5...4...3...2...1... It was the taglines that did it, wasn't it?
  • The riegn of monkeybashi sounds..... amusing. The streets will flow with the blood of the non-belivers. or something to that effect.
  • Security through obscurity. Monkeys are much safer when they can't be seen. Less trolls coming out of woodwork that way.
  • I hope Corey Feldman's presenting the awards. (I'd just like to take this opportunity to say that you're now all a bunch of sell-out bastards, and I totally preferred your earlier material :-)
  • I'd vote if I could, but I think we broke it...
  • I blame Diebold.
  • killThisKid was the last to vote ...
  • And in other categories.. both Gizmodo AND Engadget? And no Lambda?! WTF bloggies!?
  • Mirror Now, assuming we win, who is going to travel to the award ceremony on our behalf? I nominate Nostril.
  • But voting on the mirror won't count? How will they handle this voting thing, with the site down? I had though they were chosen by a self-appointed group, like the Oscars.
  • No voting on the mirror, but you can see the pretty design.
  • Yeah I'll go.
  • The theological implications are staggering.
  • Doesn't look like it's been pointed out yet - our very own Captain Psyko's rather fantastic MP3 blog, Teaching The Indie Kids To Dance Again, is also nominated for "Best Kept Secret". And an old MoFi fave, the Satan's Laundromat photoblog, is nominated in the Photography category. Go give them some love as well. (When the bandwidth lives again, that is.)
  • Shhh! It's a best kept secret, you aren't suposed to tell! Except you are suposed to vote for it.
  • Still (or again?) no bandwidth. This is absurd.
  • Ye'd think it would be prepared for traffic if people are supposed to vote.
  • Unless you're referring to a problem that only becomes apparent after you hit the submit button, the originally linked site seems up and quite visitable at this time, for me anyway.
  • Yup, the bloggies site is up again. As for when the polls officially close: Voting will close at 10:00 PM EST on Thursday, February 3. The winners will be posted sometime between Sunday, March 13 and Tuesday, March 15. You know, we could just keep this whole monkeyfilter thing between us, couldn't we?
